Elegant 18th-century inn with an ever-changing menu of quality British fare ranging from home-made duck liver pâté to roasted Cornish seabass. It’s also a great place for a lunchtime fishfinger sandwich at the fashionable bar or on the backyard terrace. Accommodation options are three double rooms, one twin/double room, a luxurious top-floor suite with excellent views across to Winchester cathedral, and a separate self-contained apartment. The rooms are comfortable, spacious and the design is an elegant mix of antique styles with subtle modern fittings. A friendly place with a relaxed atmosphere and top grub.
